The request was partially successful.

Dear Chief Executive's Office,

I am writing to request the Office to reveal full details for the basis of the approval decision for this project, including the relevant meeting minutes, and justifications why this project deserved to be tabled for discussion in the Office and could be exempted from the regulation of the Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance, given the devastating social and environmental impacts that the project will lead to due to its scale and limited benefits to solving the significant affordable housing shortage for the majority.

Dear Kwong Chan,
        I refer to your email of 24 February 2019 to the Chief Executive’s
Office requesting for an internal review of your earlier request of 27
January 2019 made under the Code on Access to Information (the Code).
 Your request has been referred to the Executive Council Secretariat.

2.        An internal review has been conducted on the earlier decision in
accordance with the Code, which is available at
[1]www.access.gov.hk/en/codeonacctoinfo/index.html.  It has been noted in
the review that Part 2 of the Code, paragraph 2.1 states that

“[a] department may refuse to disclose information, or may refuse to
confirm or deny the existence of information, in the categories and for
the reasons set out below, which will normally be referred to if a request
is refused.”

3.        Paragraphs 2.3 to 2.18 set out the reasons for which information
disclosure may be refused and the categories of information that such
reasons will apply, which include “[p]apers prepared for, and records of
meetings and deliberations of the Executive Council” (Paragraph 2.10(a) ).
 

4.        The information you requested falls under the above category.
 As such, we regret to inform you that your request cannot be acceded to.
 That notwithstanding, we note that information pertaining to the road
widening works (such as the issue of Environmental Impact Assessment),
which is the subject of your request, can be found from other sources,
including open documents of the Town Planning Board (e.g. through the
Statutory Planning Portal 2 at www1.ozp.tpb.gov.hk/gos/default.aspx) as
well as other documents kept by relevant departments.  Your request has
thus been referred to the Transport and Housing Bureau and Lands
Department for follow up.  We note that the Transport and Housing Bureau
and Lands Department have both replied to you and copies of their replies
are attached to this email for easy reference.  Furthermore, we understand
that a further reply will be issued by Lands Department  in due course in
response to your enquiries.  The contact person, as set out in Lands
Department’s previous reply, is Mr Danny WO (tel: 2654 1174; email:
[2][email address]).  

5.        We hope this would address your concerns.

Yours sincerely,

(Miss Elaine CHIU)
for Clerk to the Executive Council

Dear Mr Chan,

I refer to your email of 24 February 2019 to the Chief Executive's Office
requesting for an internal review of your earlier request of 27 January
2019 made under the Code on Access to Information and the reply from Clerk
to the Executive Council on 11 March 2019.  Your request has been referred
to this office for further reply.

I would convey the following advice from the Environmental Protection
Department for your information:

Having regard to Item A.1* under Part I of Schedule 2 to the Environmental
Impact Assessment Ordinance, Cap. 499 (EIAO) (Item A.1), the requirements
of paragraph 9.1 of the Technical Memorandum on Environmental Impact
Assessment Process (TM) that the Director of Environmental Protection
shall take the advice from the Commissioner for Transport (C for T) for
traffic and transport matters, C for T’s advice on the rural road
classification of Sai Sha Road before and after the proposed improvement
works and all relevant circumstances, we consider that the Sai Sha Road
Widening project does not fall within Item A.1, and is not a designated
project (DP) under the EIAO.

_____________________________________
*  Item A.1 under Part I of Schedule 2 to the EIAO refers to "A road which
is an expressway, trunk road, primary distributor road or district
distributor road including new roads, and major extensions or improvements
to existing roads."

Please contact me if you have any enquiries.

Danny Wo
ES/S, District Lands Office, Tai Po
Lands Department
Tel: 2654 1174

Dear Chief Executive's Office,

The project shall still be regulated by the EIA Ordinance. Let me tell you why, because the road widening is not the only major item of the project. The large scale residential and recreational development are other major items which may be regulated by the EIA Ordinance. These other regulatable items mentioned in the Schedule II, are as follows:

P.2 A residential development—
(a) of not less than 2 000 flats; and
(b) not served by public sewerage networks by the time a flat is occupied.

Q.1 All projects including new access roads, railways, sewers, sewage treatment facilities, earthworks, dredging works and other building works partly or wholly in an existing or gazetted proposed country park or special area, a conservation area, an existing or gazetted proposed marine park or marine reserve, a site of cultural heritage, and a site of special scientific interest ...

I am dissatisfied by the partial and misleading response of the Office. This is dishonesty, and I see this a misconduct in public office.

Yours faithfully,

K Chan

Dear Mr Chan,

I refer to your email of 2 June 2020 to the Chief Executive's Office
regarding the subject.  Your request has been referred to this office for
further reply.

I would convey the following advice from the Environmental Protection
Department for your information:

"For item P.2, although the proposed residential development would provide
approximately 9 500 flats (> 2 000 flats), the application demonstrated
that the residential development would be served by public sewerage
networks by the time it is occupied and hence it may not be bound by item
P.2. Nevertheless, the applicant has been reminded that if the first
population intake at the Site happens before public sewerage networks is
available, the project would be a DP under Item P.2 of the EIAO, and that
the applicant has to follow and undergo the necessary EIAO procedure for
the subject development.

For item Q.1, based on the information provided in the application, the
proposed residential development and Sai Sha Road (both before and after
widening) do not fall partly or wholly within any environmentally
sensitive areas as stipulated in Q.1.  As such, the project does not
constitute a DP item by virtue of item Q.1."

Please contact me if you have any further enquiries.
